"Director Si, my daughter has troubled you for the past few days. I will immediately send someone to bring her home."
Gu Yang Yi pondered for a while. In the end, because of the Si family's strength, he reluctantly suppressed his temper and politely replied to Si Yicheng.
However, his words were pleasant to hear, but his expression wasn't the least bit good. In fact, it was even uglier than before.
Earlier, he was just arguing with his daughter. He felt very angry, but now he had to lower his head to his daughter's man. To lower his head to a man younger than him, he felt that it was very humiliating and humiliating.
"No need to trouble yourself, Little Tong doesn't want to go home for the time being."
Gu Yang Yi was forced to give face to Si Yi Chen. However, Si Yi Chen was not restricted by him, so he didn't give him any face and directly refused his request.
Gu Yangyi's old face became even more unsightly.
"Si..." Director, you are a smart person, so you should know how important a person's reputation is. Little Tong is currently living in your house, so if word of this got out, it would affect how others think of you and her. "
"No one dares to speak lightly of my right and wrong." Si Yichen replied in a domineering manner. He then lowered his head to look at Gu Tong, who was in his arms, and leisurely added, "It doesn't matter if there's been a misunderstanding. As long as I say it, no one will dare to disbelieve me."
Gu Yang Yi was an expert at the shopping mall. He immediately understood that Si Yi Chen's words contained hidden meanings, implying that he didn't want to listen to Gu Tong's explanation.
But even if he knew that Si Yicheng was targeting him, so what?
Thinking about the Si Family's background, Gu Yangyi didn't dare to do anything easily, and didn't even dare to speak loudly.
As for the matter of getting Gu Tong to go home, after hearing these words from Si Yicheng, Gu Yangyi temporarily gave up on this idea.
It wasn't because he changed his attitude after knowing the man's identity that Gu Tong was allowed to be with him. It was because this man's background was too strong, he knew he was no match for him, so he could only bear with it.
Hearing Si Yicheng's tone, it was clear that he was protecting Little Tong. This meant that he was treating Little Tong well. If Little Tong stayed with him, she wouldn't be in any danger.
Gu Yangyi was still analyzing Gu Tong's current situation, and he was still a bit worried.
Although he was scolding Gu Tong just now, that didn't mean he hated Gu Tong and was still worried about her.
"Since Director Si has said so, then Little Tong will be waiting there to bother you for a few more days. When she wants to come back, I'll send someone to fetch her."
In the end, Gu Yangyi said something against his will.
"We'll talk about it later."
Si Yichen gave a brief reply and hung up without giving Gu Yangyi a chance to speak.
Although his actions were a bit rude, but if this person wasn't Gu Tong's father, he would definitely do something even more outrageous.
When he thought of how this man had scolded Gu Tong and made her cry, Si Yicheng felt as if someone had grabbed onto his heart. He was unable to catch a breath and felt very uncomfortable …
However, he didn't care about his feelings at the moment. He put the phone aside and went to check on Gu Tong.
"Don't worry, your dad won't be angry, and you don't need to go home for now."
Although he knew that Gu Tong had heard what he had said, he couldn't help but reiterate it. He really didn't want to see Gu Tong's painful face again.
Facing Si Yicheng's consolation, the exhausted Gu Tong did not respond. She only nodded, giving a slight response.
Si Yicheng could see that she didn't want to speak, so he didn't force her. He only quietly held her close to comfort her body.
Although they didn't say anything, they were still in harmony. However, the atmosphere on Gu Yangyi's side wasn't very good.
"Can you ask around for more information in the future?" Do you know that I offended this great Buddha, Si Yicheng, just because of your casual words? "
Gu Yang Yi, who was not in a position to be offended, had just hung up the phone with Si Yichen when he turned towards Ji Su Lan with a dark face and a temper.
However, in order to maintain her position in the family, she did not quietly endure it. Instead, she unhappily explained, "Brother-in-law, when I heard that something had happened to Little Tong at school, I panicked and immediately rushed back to report it to you. I don't even have the time to ask for details from others."
"Are you going to panic about her?"
Gu Yangyi narrowed his eyes at Ji Su Lan, full of suspicion towards her words.
Seeing the look in Gu Yang Yi's eyes, Ji Su Lan immediately lowered his eyes guiltily. At the same time, he argued in a low voice, "Brother-in-law, what are you saying? Even though Little Tong and I constantly argue, I'm still a relative. I'm her elder, so I'm still quite concerned about her. "
Hearing Ji Su Lan's words, Gu Yang Yi didn't show any emotions on his face. Instead, he mumbled softly, "If only you really cared about her."
As he said this, a conditioned reflex appeared in his mind. The scene of Gu Tong and Ji Su Lan quarreling at home instantly gave him a headache.
Actually, there were some things that he had a general idea of. However, there were some things that he was powerless to do and some things that he was unable to say, so he could only turn a blind eye and allow the situation to develop.
Of course, this was on the premise that Ji Su Lan didn't go overboard and Gu Tong didn't suffer too much damage.
He still had a bottom line.
As for his thoughts, Ji Su Lan, who was meticulously thinking about them, knew about them. He was just playing the fool.
Hearing Gu Yang Yi's words, Ji Su Lan immediately became alert. He was worried that Gu Yang Yi might be provoked by Si Yicheng's actions, and might even do something to him.
In the end, under Ji Su Lan's nervous anticipation, Gu Yang Yi didn't do anything extreme. He only sighed silently, turned around, and walked toward the study room with heavy steps.
Ji Su Lan let out a long sigh of relief as she watched his departing figure.
She didn't stay in the living room for long and quickly headed to her bedroom.
She felt that she should calm down as soon as possible and then think of a way to deal with Gu Tong.
She understood that Gu Tong was no longer the same person as before. She couldn't treat her so easily. She needed to focus all of her energy.
At this time, Gu Tong, who was being schemed against by her, had fallen asleep in Si Yichen's arms.
She didn't want to sleep, but she was too upset to talk. She just wanted to stay still.
She didn't know why, but perhaps it was due to the comfort of Si Yicheng's embrace, she had unknowingly fallen asleep.
